German to English translations [PRO] Transport / Transportation / Shipping | | German term or phrase: Transporte (in this context) | | Der in den Bergregionen heute noch übliche Reisanbau durch Mensch und Tier ist für den Reisbauern körperlich höchst anstrengend und die Ernteerträge sind mäßig. Die geplante, motorbetriebene Bodenfräse erleichtert den Reisbauern die Arbeit und schafft höhere Ernteerträge. *Transporte* für sonst notwendigen Zukauf von Reis aus anderen Regionen des Landes können entfallen. |

I think you can safely drop the “sonst notwendigen Zukauf” here to make it sound more natural in English. |

Explanation: they mean, that it is not necessary to buy rice from somewhere else and bring/transport it to the resp. region, so, strictly speaking, the buying becomes redundant, and as consequence the transport.
